SL Letter of the Day: Earth Boys Are Easy

Thanks for mentioning “Jurassic” John Cummins in your column last week. Luckily he and his party are considered fringe up here in British Columbia, so he doesn’t have a lot of popular support and his party isn’t likely to win any seats. You are probably already familiar with the research detailing a correlation between homophobia and homosexual arousal, but in case you aren’t, here’s a link to an excellent article.

I believe that Jurassic John's remarks are nothing short of an admission that he is bisexual. As a straight man, I know very well that I never made a decision to be attracted to women. At a certain age I simply started noticing my willy getting stiff when I thought about them. There was no choice involved. I didn’t choose heterosexuality any more than you chose homosexuality or Jurassic John chose bisexuality. I think bisexuality is more prevalent in men than we know. We often forget about bisexual men because they genuinely like women and they aren’t forced to live a lie if they happen to marry one. Bisexual men can choose to suppress their homosexual sides and still have a sexual outlet. Not so for your kind, Dan. But for bisexual men like Jurassic John, homosexuality is a choice. But that whole choice argument is null and void anyways. A friend of mine pointed out that religion is a choice, and it’s protected by the Human Rights Act. And for the record, I wish could choose to be bisexual! It would double my chances of getting laid. Actually, it would probably triple or quadruple my chances, as I hear the men are easy.

Yes, FUCK, I can confirm that men—gay, straight, and bi—are easy. Thanks for sharing.
